Dramfool's Jim McEwan Signature Collection sees a host of Bruichladdich single malt bottlings, each signed off by former master distiller Jim McEwan. This expression was distilled in September 2008 and spent its entire 14-year maturation in a single first-fill grenache blanc wine barrique.
Unmistakably Islay with that marine freshness. Little hints of heather in bloom merge beautifully with the sweetness of the toasted barley, and then the gentle notes of grapes and mellow oak rise in harmony complimented by background notes of Atlantic breeze evokes the senses in a way few others do.
Super smooth with a texture that lingers long on the taste buds. The wine notes merge beautifully with crispy sweetness of the kiln dried barley and the multi-layered flavours are held in a ‘Hebridean Halo’ of all that makes Islay maturation unique. The spirit is supple, sweet and succulent and hand crafted by a team of dedicated distillers who distil in the way their forefathers did before them.
Lingers long and gentle with a sweet fruity and malty mouthfeel that makes you reach for the bottle!
